Foley not worried about burnout

Bernard Foley has no burnout fears despite securing a flexible contract with the Australian Rugby Union that allows the Wallabies playmaker two seasons in Japan while also carrying on with the NSW Waratahs.

Foley is the first player granted such a deal as the ARU tries to head off a player exodus after this year’s Rugby World Cup.

The deal locks Foley in with the NSW Waratahs until the end of 2018 and also frees the 25-year-old up to play for a Japanese club after the Rugby World Cup and again after next year’s Rugby Championship.
